SoftQualify™

Recent repository changes now allow mortgage lenders to use soft pre-qualification reports to pre-qualify prospective buyers in seconds. SoftQualify delivers significant cost savings versus traditional tri-merge reports. By reducing pre-qualification costs, we can now help mortgage professionals increase margins, streamline processes and attract more REALTOR®  relationships and referrals.

SoftQualify reports are available online 24/7, are simple to read and are virtually identical to traditional tri-merge credit reports. They include the exact same FICO score model that is used during the underwriting process.

SoftQualify Advantages

• Provides a significant cost savings over a tri-merge report for pre-qualification purposes.
• Does not impact consumer FICO scores.
• Does not place a hard inquiry on the consumer’s credit report.
• Does not activate competitor trigger leads.
• Provides a cost-effective way to generate more REALTOR referrals.
• The SoftQualify report is not an application and not subject to FACTA disclosures simplifying downstream compliance requirements.
• Powerful tool for attracting first-time home buyers and those currently renting.

Limitations

• Pre-qualification use only—cannot be used for loan underwriting.
• Requires a signed authorization or if handled via phone; a recorded script which must be preserved.
• The consumer cannot be charged for the report, nor can the report be disclosed to the buyer.
• Not eligible for CreditXpert analysis or Score Express rescoring.
